dear cis queer folk
If your queer media doesn't include trans themes,
Just say,
'Oh fuck, I totally didn't think to include trans people. I guess my friend circle is very cis and I just fell victim to my own cis centric biases. I will remedy this in the future.'
Instead of saying,
'What, no, I'm super trans friendly. Look, in that background of this scene, this masculine cis girl could be construed as a trans man. Look how friendly to the trans community I am.'

I like taking things designed for awful purposes and repurposing them for good

re: FFVI spoilers
there are a lot of little touches in the FFVI that make it really my favorite of the series. you play through it but then there's still so much more nuance you can go back and find
It's possible, easy even, to completely misunderstand the dynamic between Edgar and Sabin and especially the significance of Edgar apparently randomly having a double-headed coin to trick Setzer with
